When I first started doing hair and I had a client who had grey, someone that wanted to go darker or lighter with highlights on top of that....I would color the whole head and then go back and foil in highlights in after. That was a lengthy unnecessary process.

First of all, you are damaging the hair. You are coloring it dark only to go back and recolor it with bleach. Secondly, you are wasting time. You have to wait for processing time twice and shampoo out twice and so on and so forth.....

The best and most efficient way is to apply your highlights with foils and then paint your all-over color in between the foils. This is tricky to learn at first, but after you do it a few times, you wonder why you weren't doing it this way all along.
